Includes Fitness Armband Co-developed with Reebok®



These first sports headphones from Bose feature colors (green/orange) suited for active sports and come with a Reebok® fitness armband to store your digital music player during workouts. Bose's proprietary compact, high-performance speaker technology and "TriPort® technology" for low-frequency reproduction deliver balanced sound. Enjoy natural, expansive audio across a wide range, from the intricate details of instruments and clear vocals to deep, rich bass.

The "Bose® SIE2 sport headphones" can be used with various digital music players, while the "Bose® SIE2i sport headphones" are designed exclusively for Apple products like the iPhone and iPod. The inline remote with microphone on the Y-joint allows for answering calls and controlling music playback, including volume adjustment.

Sweat and Rain Resistant with Bose's Signature Sound




The headphone housing features ports strategically placed to prevent sweat and water from entering, protected by hydrophobic fabric that blocks moisture without affecting sound quality. In addition to this water resistance, the headphones boast enhanced durability for intense workouts, thanks to connectors with significantly improved strength and cables made from materials that resist damage from stretching.

On the Apple-compatible "Bose® SIE2i sport headphones," the inline remote with microphone also incorporates a water-resistant structure and a hydrophobic windscreen, ensuring water resistance and reducing wind noise.

Secure Fit for Essential Exercise Gear




Bose's unique "StayHear® tips" are wing-shaped silicone eartips designed to fit into the contours of your ears, providing a secure fit even during active pursuits like exercise. Because they don't need to be pushed into the ear canal, they allow you to hear ambient sounds, making outdoor running and other activities more enjoyable and safe.

The included armband, designed for comfortable workouts while storing digital music players, is made from stretchy, breathable material and features a front window allowing touch operation of the device. An extension cable is also included for situations requiring a longer cord, such as when using a treadmill.
